American Bison Horn bow(new pics)
« on: August 09, 2009, 10:41:47 pm »
Perty much done with it. I have a few (legal) eagle feather replicas on order to complete this one,but will leave them off for the up coming season and put them on after wards.Very pleased so far with the out come of this lil bow. 53" 54# @ 26". American Bison horn belly,sinew backed,with bull snake skins and a paint job. Tom Ressler helped me a lot on this bow as it is my first one of this type. Alll the paint has different meanings but we won't go into that just yet. This is the same bow I did the buildalong on,so the full draw pic is on it.

Not real pleased with the way most of these pics turned out,so I will have my daughter do it up right at a later date.

This bow was a very fullfilling build. ;)
